Industry Trends
It is learned that, in this week, the haze in a majority of regions in China has dispersed, the concentration of PM2.5 is getting lowered and the air quality is getting better, while Anyang and surrounding areas are still in red alert and the steel mills, cored wire and raw material manufacturers are still in limited or suspended production. Impacted by weather factor, the operation rate of the cored wire manufacturers in north area is low.
Recently, the offer of nodularizer cored wire of manufacturers in northern area has reduced, while the demand in the south is relatively stable with slight rise in offers of some manufacturers. The market transaction statistics shows that in Henan, Liaoning and Shandong, the mainstream transaction price is 10,000-10,500 yuan per ton, while in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it is 10,800-11,000 yuan per ton, which varies according to specific contents and technique.
The market situation of solid pure calcium cored wire is stable and its demand rises steadily. The manufacturers are stable in order receiving and delivery. The price of metal calcium wire, the raw material maintains operation at a low level. Therefore, the mainstream transaction price of solid pure calcium cored wire still remains at 9,700 - 10,200 yuan per ton.
The recent situation of silicon calcium cored wire is stable. The price of silicon calcium alloy, the raw material, maintains low-price running. At present, the demand of downstream steel mills for silicon calcium cored wire is getting stable. Transaction, delivery and other links are stable. There is no significant price fluctuation. The market transaction statistics shows that in Henan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the mainstream transaction price of silicon calcium cored wire Ca30Si58∮13mm is 10,500-11,000 yuan per ton, Ca28Si50∮13mm is 7,850-8,500 yuan per ton, Ca28Si55∮13mm is 9,700-10,000 yuan per ton and Ca30Si60∮13mm is 10,500- 11,000 yuan per ton.
The market situation of ferrotitanium cored wire is stable. The downstream demand is not so much and is dominated by low and medium-titanium cored wire. The manufacturers mainly produce ferrotitanium cored wire according to order and dare not to reserve inventory. The market transaction statistics shows that in Henan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the mainstream transaction price of ferrotitanium cored wire FeTi30%min∮13mm is 11,500 - 11,800 yuan per ton and FeTi70%min∮13mm is 25,000-25,800 yuan per ton.
There is no obvious price fluctuation in other cored wire products. The market transaction statistics shows that, the mainstream transaction price of silicon magnesium cored wire Si40Mg28Re2∮13mm is 11,500-12,500 yuan per ton; ferro calcium cored wire Ca30∮13mm is 8,600-8,800 yuan per ton and Ca30∮30mm is 10,000-10,500 yuan per ton; sulphur cored wire S98%∮13mm is 6,500-6,800 yuan per ton; ferroboron cored wire B17%∮13mm is 18,500-19,000 yuan per ton; seamless metal calcium cored wire Ca98%min∮9mm is 98,000 - 10,800 yuan per ton and Ca98%min∮10mm is 14,800 - 15,500 yuan per ton; carbon cored wire C96%∮13mm is 5,900-6,200 yuan per ton, C97%∮13mm is 5,800-6,100 yuan per ton and C98%∮13mm is 5,800-6,100 yuan per ton.
In terms of raw materials, Ferroboron FeB19C0.1 is 20,000-22,000 yuan per ton, FeB18C0.5 is 18,000-18,200 yuan per ton, FeB17C0.5 is 17,500-17,800 yuan per ton and FeB16C0.5 is 17,000-17,200 yuan per ton; silicocalcium Ca28Si50 is 9,300-9,500 yuan per ton, Ca28Si55 is 10,000-10,500 yuan per ton, Ca28Si60 is 10,600-10,800 yuan per ton, Ca30Si55 is 10,500-10,700 yuan per ton, Ca30Si56 is 10,000-10,200 yuan per ton, Ca30Si60 is 10,800-11,500 yuan per ton; rare earth magnesium silicon is 7,000-7,500 yuan per ton; FeTi30 is 9,300 yuan per ton; cold rolled strip steel Q195 0.35*55 is 4,460-4,480 yuan per ton, Q195 0.4 *55 and Q195 0.45 *55 is 4,420-4,450 yuan per ton, SPCC0.35-0.39*55 is 4,520-4,550 yuan per ton, SPCC 0.4 *55 and SPCC 0.45 *55 is 4,460-4,480 yuan per ton; metal calcium wire (Ca≥97%, Φ: 7-7.5mm) is 18,000-19,000 yuan per ton and metal calcium particle (Ca≥98.5%, Φ: 0-2.5mm) is 19,500-21,000 yuan per ton; metal crude calcium (Ca≥98.5%, particle size: 0-2.5mm) is 18,500-21,000 yuan per ton.
The export transaction price of calcium silicon cored wire ca30si60∮13mm is 1,550 to 1,630 US dollars per ton. Calcium silicon cored wire ca28si55∮13mm is 1,530 to 1,600 US dollars per ton. Bite type solid core pure calcium core wire ca98%min∮9mm is 1,670 to 1,750 US dollars per ton. Pure calcium cored wire Ca30 ∮13mm is 1,350 to 1,400 US dollars per ton. There is no adjustment comparing with the last month (FOB price, Tianjin Port).
Recently, the market demand for cored wire increased slightly, but it is still difficult to change the overall downturn. The later market is not prospective and will be still dominated by weak and stable operation.
